If I click "quote" on GoblinKing's last post it appears in the message box as a quote.
But it won't work on any other posts on this page.

Also, even weirder, if I hover my mouse over the "quote" button on MBF's empty posts I can see the original text in the status bar, I can copy it:

It has worked previously (yesterday) but not today for me. I've logged out and come back in again but no luck.Weirdly, if I press it in this post it works

Anyone else come across this recently or is it just user error on my part?!? Update: just seen Dennis's message here which seems to point to the same or similar issue I've highlighted: Quote:

Sometimes I think that you're too sweet to die,
Then other times I think you ought to be buried alive.

I just pressed the quote button about 10 times to quote Jimmy's post above me. Nothing happened.

The text to quote is placed inside single quotes and sent to a javascript function, so the first apostrophe it comes across will close the quote but leave the rest of the text in limbo, so the javascript function will fail. Quite often the answer is to use two apostrophes, but I tried that and it does not work in this case.

Your empty posts seem to have text, it just is not displaying for some reason, and they all have apostrophes as well.

I would guess that this post will quote as I purposely avoided using them.

I can't actually show you what is wrong because it won't let me, but you have started the line with an opening quote tag but also ended with an opening tag as well. (You can see it in my first post on this page) replace the last tag with a closing tag and it displays ok.

They are the only two posts without apostrophes.The text to quote is placed inside single quotes and sent to a javascript function, so the first apostrophe it comes across will close the quote but leave the rest of the text in limbo, so the javascript function will fail.
